In this specialty section of Metamaterials, a wide scope of concepts concerning innovative science and technologies of metamaterials will be covered – ranging from theoretical studies to applications. This section welcomes submissions that include, but not limited to, the following topics:

Metamaterials are man-made materials consisting of tiny unit structures whose scale is substantially much smaller than the wavelength of the exciting field. The most important and interesting point of metamaterials is their properties are derived from geometrically designed structures rather than constituent materials and, by engineering such kind of materials, they enable us to obtain unprecedented materials whose properties are difficult to find in nature. Owing to this unique characteristic, metamaterials have introduced new concepts and new paradigms to optics and photonics. Historically, metamaterial research began by realizing negative index materials in the microwave frequency region, and the working frequency has been intensively extended to the visible region. Now, the concept of metamaterials has spread, not only to electromagnetic waves, but also to acoustic waves, material waves, heat flux, and so on.
